Custom hand made Cimbasso in Italy

[Ian1]

Hi all,

Please see this thread to read about an amazing Cimbasso build by hand for me by Alessandro Faccin in Italy.

It’s a work of art and by far the finest one I’ve played.

That looks and sounds great! What key is it in?

[Kirley]

Sounds like Eb.

What a beautiful instrument!

Is the thumb trigger longer than a flat whole step?

Hi,

If anyone in New York wants to see this great instrument or try it out then just drop me a message. I’ll be in the city for 4 weeks (April 2nd - May 2nd). Playing at BAM. I’ll also be using a lovely old Besson EEb hand picked and played by John Fletcher many years ago.

Cheers!
